Photo of a messy desk filled with art supplies a dirty plate a cutting mat and laptop with drawing tablet. There’s a collected assortment of papers everywhere with some things organized but mostly a multifunctional table being utilized to its max.

This is what I call chaos mode (slightly cleaned up to remove bills n stuff). It will get messier as the week continues. Currently creating/packing some of the reward items from the Kickstarter. And yes that’s the ECCC Critical Role panel playing on my drawing tablet. 😄

Srsly? Did something get revealed recently?

Now for the fun part… painting the sketch bundle tier’s special reward!

After so many spreadsheets and files, it’s REALLY nice to go analog for a bit. ❤️🎨🖌️

Who knew how disabling hurting my back over the weekend would be? Limitations to my mobility were expected but the amount of sleeping resulting from not being able to do much was a surprise.

Screenshot of Kickstarter campaign page for Beyond the Road. Shows “$3096 pledges of $1500” circled and “70 backers” with 3 arrows pointing to it. Text overlaid reads, “we did it! Gonna go sleep now and send out messages in the morning.”

We did it!! The Kickstarter has ended with 3 stretch goals unlocked!
Time for some sleep but next steps will start soon…!

🙌 thanks for help spreading the word!

Thank you @ancientbuho.bsky.social for helping me with my table! ❤️

Last night’s SFWC Sip & Stories went by so fast I forgot to take photos 😭. I had a blast tho! Met writers, story enthusiasts, and book sellers in this packed 2hr event. I think I spent more time chatting with people away from my table than at it. 😆

I remember having a doctor tell me my pain wasn’t real because it doesn’t match her description of my condition. 10 yrs later and that condition has a new subcategorization that is me. MF.

Felt that… 😐
